> [https://github.com/apache/avro/pull/82] added support for Avro "decimal" logical type but also added an assertion that results in a reader failing for other logical types. 
> [https://github.com/apache/avro/blob/master/lang/py/src/avro/schema.py#L821]
> I believe this is a regression since previously avro library used to read the underlying primitive type instead of failing.
> Can we revert the behavior for logical types that are not "decimal" by removing this assertion and reverting to the old (avro 1.8.1) behavior of returning the primitive type ?
